Working for Women is recruiting Board Members who share our passion for supporting women and want to play an active role in growing this worthy organization.
Working for Women (W4W) partners with carefully vetted nonprofits that support women who are economically marginalized and connects them to businesses that provide financial and skill-based capital to create an ecosystem of impact.
In 2025, we have programs spanning key metro regions across the Northeast, South, Midwest, West Coast, and Pacific Northwest, a growing network of 45+ business and professional investors, eight (8) nonprofit partners, a team of 5 staff, (11) dedicated Board Directors, and a 5-star rating on Great Nonprofits.
“W4W is an amazing start up nonprofit organization designed to support underserved women gain economic independence and mobility while helping business deliver social good and develop their people at the same time. The organization is driven by a clear vision from our founder who works passionately and tirelessly to bring this vision to a broader audience. The response from both the women who benefit and the companies who partner has been overwhelmingly positive.”
